Concubine in power

Chapter 129 Return of the Thief

Lu Zhiyao forgot exactly when she fell asleep, and didn't know what happened during the time she fell asleep.Anyway, as soon as she opened her eyes, she was no longer in Mu Wang's Mansion.

Opening his eyes drowsily, Lu Zhiyao woke up and found himself lying on the bed, sat up reflexively and lowered his head to check his clothes.Seeing that the outer robe disappeared, Lu Zhiyao's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he hurriedly looked around for Lin Yinan's trace, intending to ask the teacher for his crime.But after seeing clearly the furnishings in the house, Lu Zhiyao slowly calmed down again.

She was nowhere else but her home, her room.

Lu Zhiyao sat on the bed in a daze for a long time, unable to remember when she came back.So he went to find Wanyue and asked what happened.

"It was the Eighth Prince who sent Miss back." Wanyue didn't think too much, and answered Lu Zhiyao's question nonchalantly. "Miss is sleeping soundly in the arms of the Eighth Prince. If the Eighth Prince might not allow us to call you, none of us dared to call you. We have let you sleep until now."

"You listen to him!" Lu Zhiyao scolded Wanyue angrily, and asked anxiously, "Did he say anything else when he sent me back?"

"Not anymore." After thinking about it seriously, Wanyue shook her head. "The eighth prince looked very tired, and he left without saying anything. Miss, is the eighth prince's illness relapsed?"

"It's none of your business, go out."

Lu Zhiyao waved his hand and sent Wanyue away.Lin Mubai would not let them go so easily, Lin Yinan must have done something.Wanyue said that Lin Yinan looked very tired, could it be that he made a move with Lin Mubai's people?

Lu Zhiyao thought about it restlessly, but in the end, he didn't ask Lin Yinan what happened.That night in Mu Wang's Mansion, even if Lu Zhiyao thought about it afterwards, his heart would beat faster.Recently, he spent more and more time in contact with Lin Yinan, and Lu Zhiyao's mind was almost muddled by him.There are still a few days before he will go to the Eight Emperors' Mansion to live a difficult life, so Lu Zhiyao doesn't want to run to Lin Yinan again to find his discomfort.

Lu Zhiyao stayed comfortably in the Prime Minister's mansion for a day, took a bath and lay down on the bed at night, thinking about the few good days ahead, he couldn't tell what it was like.

The closer it was to the day of the two of them's rejoicing, the more Lu Zhiyao couldn't stay in the prime minister's mansion.Compared with the last experience of getting married, Lu Zhiyao's nervousness this time is even worse.Lu Yuanzheng came to visit Lu Zhiyao more and more, for fear that she would accidentally bump into him, and he always told her to be careful and not to run around.This sudden "father's love" not only didn't make Lu Zhiyao feel better, but made him feel even more out of breath.Therefore, when Lu Zhiyao knew that Yudie was going out to collect herbs, she resolutely followed her out to get some fresh air.

Yudie and Wanyue looked at Lu Zhiyao's decisive expression, neither of them dared to shake their heads and say no.They have seen Lu Zhiyao's actions these past few days, and they can also see Lu Zhiyao's anxiety and uneasiness.It was broad daylight now, and Lu Zhiyao ran out several times at night without any problems, so they didn't worry much during the day.Taking Lu Zhiyao sneaking out of Xiangfu, Wanyue, Yudie and Lu Zhiyao walked all the way towards the mountain where Yudie often went to collect herbs.

Lu Zhiyao followed the two for a long time before arriving at the place they said.In the empty and uninhabited surroundings, there is a comfortable green color as far as the eye can see.Lu Zhiyao sat down on the grass breathing smoothly, looked up at Yudie and asked, "Is this where you and your master met?"

"Yes, but I haven't seen him for a long time." Yudie turned her head to look at the ground, answered Lu Zhiyao's question, and then told Wanyue, "You stay here with Miss, and I'll go over there to pick some herbs. return."

Lu Zhiyao watched Yudie go to work not too far away, she leaned back and lay down. "I didn't expect it to be so quiet here. If I had known earlier, I would have come here often with Yudie."

"Miss has really lost her temper recently, and she loves to run out more and more." Wanyue sat next to Lu Zhiyao, talking and laughing with Lu Zhiyao: "Could it be because the big day with the Eighth Prince is approaching, So you're too nervous?"

"You slave, sooner or later I will slap your mouth." Lu Zhiyao snorted coldly, squinted at Wanyue and warned: "It's a rare good weather and good mood, don't mention him to me."

Lu Zhiyao closed his eyes and rested his mind. After Yudie came back, he reluctantly got up, patted the dust on his body, and walked in the direction of going back.

The three of them were walking on the quiet path, and when they heard the sound of a carriage behind them, they all turned their heads, and then automatically moved their bodies to give way to those people and the carriage.

Lu Zhiyao turned his head to look at the group of people, there were many people, and the horses and carriages were all excellent.The direction of these people was obviously going to the capital, so Lu Zhiyao deduced that they might be businessmen from other places who wanted to expand their business under the foot of the emperor and make a fortune.Or... It is also possible that some adult returned to the capital, but without officers and soldiers following him, something is not quite right.

Just as Lu Zhiyao was thinking wildly, a horse suddenly stopped in front of her.Lu Zhiyao looked up, and reached out to cover the two maids behind him.

"Girl, let me ask you, the direction of the capital is this way, right?"

Rich son, Lu Zhiyao was sure that this was the first time he had met him.But this cheap voice seemed to be heard somewhere.

"That's right, it's over here." Lu Zhiyao responded, thinking that he would turn around and leave, but unexpectedly he spoke again.

"I see that the girls seem to be going to the capital, how about Shunfeng, how about I take you all the way?"

"Thank you for your kindness, no need, we can walk back by ourselves." Lu Zhiyao coldly refused, feeling vigilant.

Lu Zhiyao's sharp eyes fell on the man unceremoniously.The man looked at her cold and domineering appearance, and sighed helplessly.When he heard him calling from a distance: "Master, hurry up!", he smiled at Lu Zhiyao, then turned and left.

Looking at the back of the man walking away, Lu Zhiyao always felt that he had seen him somewhere, but he couldn't remember.He didn't take this matter too seriously, after returning to the city, Lu Zhiyao had already put it behind him until he met them again.

"This house has been vacant for a long time, has someone finally moved in today?" Wanyue stared curiously at the large group of people in front of her, and after looking at it for a while, she said in amazement: "Miss, it was us who just moved in." The people I met!"

Lu Zhiyao had seen the house Wanyue mentioned before, and I heard that it was bought by a wealthy businessman, but he left the capital after living there for a period of time, so it was always vacant.

Lu Zhiyao walked over slowly, not intending to stay.But the man who appeared in front of her again and blocked her way made Lu Zhiyao have to stop and ask, "Did we meet somewhere?"

"Miss, can this be regarded as flirting with me?" The man was slightly startled, and asked with a smile.

The teasing tone was inexplicably familiar. Lu Zhiyao looked at the sly light in his eyes, twitched the corner of his mouth with a smirk, and said, "Maybe I misremembered, sorry."

"Wait!" The man chased after two steps, faced Lu Zhiyao again, and asked softly, "You really don't remember me?"

"You are?" Lu Zhiyao looked at him suspiciously, trying hard to search for the owner of this face in his mind.After seeing his mouth moving and saying three words, Lu Zhiyao turned from shock to anger, and said in a cold voice, "So it's you whore..."

Before he could say the word "thief", Lu Zhiyao was covered by Chu Ziqian.Taking advantage of the situation, Lu Zhiyao bit his hand, seeing how Chu Ziqian withdrew his hand with bared teeth, and smiled triumphantly.

"What kind of game are you playing? What do you want to do when you come back to the capital?"

"Guess what?" Chu Ziqian didn't expect that the first person he would meet would be Lu Zhiyao.

"What good things can you do?" Lu Zhiyao sneered, thinking about Chu Ziqian's identity as a flower picker, he immediately had no good impression of him.

"I came back this time specifically to pick your flowers." Chu Ziqian leaned forward and whispered into Lu Zhiyao's ear.

Lu Zhiyao snorted and smiled. "Then try it. I said, if you come back again, I will definitely catch you and hand you over to the government."

Lu Zhiyao's words made Chu Ziqian's attitude soften all of a sudden. With a flattering smile, Chu Ziqian looked back at the servants who were still moving things into the house, and said to Lu Zhiyao in a low voice: " I have serious business to do when I come back this time, please don't let anyone know my identity."

"What serious business can you have?" Lu Zhiyao frowned in disbelief, puzzled, since Chu Ziqian was afraid that others would know his identity, why did he take the initiative to talk to him? "It's not bad that you are easy-going. You can always be easy-going. I think your black heart is about to rot, isn't it?"

Lu Zhiyao smiled, but the words that came out of his mouth were like sharp knives, mocking Chu Ziqian.

"Thank you, Miss Lu, for your compliment. I also think I have a good face." Chu Ziqian nodded narcissistically, and said flatteredly: "The house is messy today, and I will invite Miss Lu to the house some other day. Sit down, what do you think?"

Lu Zhiyao looked at Chu Ziqian with an uncertain expression, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "You don't intend to stay in the capital for a long time, do you?"

The answer Chu Ziqian gave made Lu Zhiyao's teeth itch with hatred. If he lived in the capital for a few months, wouldn't all the girls in the capital be harmed by him? !

"Don't worry, even if I do harm, I will only harm you." Seeing Lu Zhiyao's expression, Chu Ziqian knew what she was thinking.Teasing Lu Zhiyao's chin, Chu Ziqian said with a smile: "I came back with my father, so you have to keep my secret."
